Salary Range: £37,694 - £46,049
FTE: 1 (35 hours/week)
Contract Type: Fixed (24 months)
Closing Date: 25/08/26
This role will involve the development of an immunoassay and an electrochemical biosensor platform for use pond side in Vietnam and Thailand. The pathogens Vibrio harveyii and Vibrio parahaemolyticus are key targets for the biosensor which is likely to operate via a magnetic immunoassay or an eLFA both with amperometric readout. The post will be based in the Centre for Advanced Measurement Research and Health Translation (CAMRHT)an interdisciplinary centre involving the University, the National Measurement Laboratory (NML) and NHS Lanarkshire. CAMRHT is led by Professor Damion Corrigan and is focused on projects which establish basic biosensor principles and then translate through to prototype and real-world exploration of device performance. CAMRHT is equipped with early-stage prototyping and manufacturing capability to facilitate development of an early stage system, alongside previous experience in immunoassay development and bioconjugation. The project sits under CAMRHT’s One Health agenda and involves collaboration with several groups involved in this large consortium project.
Initial interviews have been scheduled for the end of August.
